3 Ways to Care for Your Health This Fall

Fall brings many things: shorter days, cooler weather, and the start of the holidays. Though a welcome change, it can still shift our energy and routines. Yoga helps us adapt, strengthening body, breath, and mind through mindful movement, breath awareness, and relaxation.

Attending class offers both structure and community—two essentials for sustaining a steady practice.

Here are three ways your yoga practice supports you through the season:

Relieve stress and build resilience
Forward extensions such as Adho Mukha Virasana, Adho Mukha Svanasana, and Uttanasana calm the nervous system and refresh the mind.

Create stability and strength
Standing poses like the Virabhadrasana series balance strength and flexibility, easing stiffness and building a steady foundation.

Support your body’s natural healing
Gentle backbends and inversions—such as Setu Bandha Sarvangasana or Viparita Karani—help regulate the nervous system and restore vitality.

Keep your practice steady this season. Join us for class and stay connected to your health and well-being.

Pranayama offers tools to steady the mind and restore balance.

“If the foundation is firm the building can withstand calamities. The practice of yoga is the foundation so that the self is not shaken under any circumstances.” — B.K.S. Iyengar

Iyengar Yoga emphasizes precision, structure, and steadiness — qualities that build a foundation for strength and clarity in both body and mind.

At California Yoga Center, we teach with this same intention: helping students develop tools that support balance and resilience in daily life.

Have you ever wondered how yoga goes beyond the poses?

Through breathwork, asana, and insights from the Yoga Sutras and Bhagavad Gita, you’ll learn how the bandhas refine the breath, strengthen the core and digestion, and transform asana into deep energetic practice.

In this workshop, you’ll explore:
What prana is and how it’s described in the Yoga Sutras
Where the bandhas are located and how to activate them
How subtle energetic work enhances focus, clarity, and stability

Sunday, Sept 28 | 11 am–1 pm | In person & online with Ganesh Balachandran, Ph.D.”
